Psalm 141
New International Version
Psalm 141
A psalm of David.
1 I call to you, Lord, come quickly(A) to me;
hear me(B) when I call to you.
2 May my prayer be set before you like incense;(C)
may the lifting up of my hands(D) be like the evening sacrifice.(E)
3 Set a guard over my mouth,(F) Lord;
keep watch over the door of my lips.(G)
4 Do not let my heart(H) be drawn to what is evil
so that I take part in wicked deeds(I)
along with those who are evildoers;
do not let me eat their delicacies.(J)
5 Let a righteous man strike me—that is a kindness;
let him rebuke me(K)—that is oil on my head.(L)
My head will not refuse it,
for my prayer will still be against the deeds of evildoers.
Salmos 141
Nueva Versión Internacional
Salmo de David.
141 A ti clamo, Señor, ven pronto a mí.
Escucha mi voz cuando a ti clamo.
2 Que suba a tu presencia mi oración
como una ofrenda de incienso,
mis manos levantadas
como el sacrificio de la tarde.
3 Señor, ponme en la boca un centinela;
un guardia a la puerta de mis labios.
4 No permitas que mi corazón se incline a la maldad
ni que sea yo cómplice de iniquidades;
no me dejes participar de banquetes
en compañía de malhechores.
5 Que cuando el justo me castigue,
sea una muestra de amor;
que su reprensión sea bálsamo que mi cabeza no rechace,
pues mi oración siempre está en contra de las malas obras.
6 Cuando sus gobernantes sean arrojados desde los despeñaderos,
sabrán que mis palabras eran bien intencionadas.
7 Y dirán: «Así como se esparce la tierra
cuando en ella se abren surcos con el arado,
así se han esparcido nuestros huesos
a la orilla del sepulcro».[a]
8 Por eso tengo los ojos puestos en ti, mi Señor y Dios,
en ti busco refugio; no me dejes morir.
9 Protégeme de las trampas que me tienden,
de las trampas que me tienden los malhechores.
10 Que caigan los malvados en sus propias redes,
mientras yo salgo bien librado.

Psalm 141
King James Version
141 Lord, I cry unto thee: make haste unto me; give ear unto my voice, when I cry unto thee.
2 Let my prayer be set forth before thee as incense; and the lifting up of my hands as the evening sacrifice.
3 Set a watch, O Lord, before my mouth; keep the door of my lips.
4 Incline not my heart to any evil thing, to practise wicked works with men that work iniquity: and let me not eat of their dainties.
5 Let the righteous smite me; it shall be a kindness: and let him reprove me; it shall be an excellent oil, which shall not break my head: for yet my prayer also shall be in their calamities.
6 When their judges are overthrown in stony places, they shall hear my words; for they are sweet.
7 Our bones are scattered at the grave's mouth, as when one cutteth and cleaveth wood upon the earth.
8 But mine eyes are unto thee, O God the Lord: in thee is my trust; leave not my soul destitute.
9 Keep me from the snares which they have laid for me, and the gins of the workers of iniquity.
10 Let the wicked fall into their own nets, whilst that I withal escape.
